/in , /by

Dear Members and Friends of Holy Trinity,

Here are this week’s congregational updates:

  • Attached are some links summarizing some of the happenings of last week’s SC Synod Assembly, including the worship service as well as the presentations.

  • The new Christ in Our Home devotionals, for the months of July – September are in the narthex ready for you to pick up a copy.

  • A reminder that this Sunday is the deadline for all donated items for our Nursery “Flowers in Bloom” project to be dropped off to the Church Office Parlor.  We are very grateful to Suzie Bannister, Anna Caldwell, Connor Caldwell,  and Beth Cribbe for going through our old nursery items, coming up with a list of needed replacement items, and then creating and implementing our wonderful “Flowers in Bloom” project and for the generosity of the congregation!

  • As part of the announcements Sunday, we will be recognizing all fathers in attendance at worship.

  • Sunday, I will be preaching on the gospel text, Matthew 9:35-10:23, specifically, verse 8, “You received without payment; give without payment”, basically reminding each of us that we have been blessed abundantly by God and are now asked to bless others.

  • Our latest tally of Encouragement Cards that were created by members of the congregation for the United Way BackPack program is 709 cards!  Wow!  Thanks so much to all who took part in this outreach ministry.

In Christ,

Pastor Fischer
